Additional Information

Plant seeds along each side or let long vines grow up and over the top

Makes the most of limited garden space by creating shade for cool-season plants underneath

Growing cucumbers on a trellis minimizes disease problems and keeps the fruit straight and blemish-free. This A-frame trellis lets you plant a row on both sides; or, let long vines grow up, over the top and down the other side. The sturdy, powder-coated steel frame supports heavy loads and has big 4" grid openings for easy harvesting. There's even room to grow salad greens in the shade under the trellis. Use in raised beds or in-ground gardens.

This trellis looks really good and I'm sure I will like it in the garden. The only negative was assembly. The panels fit together fine. I was able get the two end coils on easily but couldn't figure out how to get the middle ones on. My husband tried and couldn't do it until he figured out that you need to keep screwing the end ones to the middle then put the end one on.

This looked pretty simple and straightforward on the website. When the box arrived, I eagerly opened it and got ready to install in my raised bed. My cucumbers were waiting... Well, the instructions were incomplete, a loose green part was in the box which I figured out what it was for later. The screws are impossible to twist to attach the 2 sides. The website did not provide the little detail that I would need to find a way to secure this into the soil. I was expecting (foolish me) it to have stakes into the ground.

I'm passionate about pickles. That's why caring for my cucumber crop tops my list of garden chores. And to me, there is nothing worse than a soggy, limp, crunch-less pickle. My biggest goal is to make sure they stay crisp!
